Neil Patrick Harris to host Award Function

Posted on | August 5, 2009 |

Some time it pays to be a comedian. Even if it does not get you the girl, you at least get to host the Award Function. I know I am not fooling anybody as you already know that I am talking about Barney of How I Met Your Mother, played by Neil Patrick Harris. He has been selected to host this year’s Emmy Awards.

His performance as Mc at the Tony Awards in June not only impressed the Broadway’s finest brains but also Emmy honchos who snapped this talented actor to host one of the biggest and the most sought after award functions.

Harris says of his new job, “After having had such a hoot hosting the Tonys, I was thrilled to get the call about the prime-time Emmys. I’m looking forward to the challenge of the show - adding my own voice to it, while honouring the nominees and the entire year in television. But which voice to choose? I’m torn between gangsta, foppish Brit, and robot. Really proud of my robot. We’ll see what happens on the night.”

The ceremony is scheduled to take place in Los Angeles on 20 September 2009.

Harris achieved immense popularity with his portrayal of Barney on How I Met Your Mother. This is what he has to say about the character he portrays. Barney is a person who “likes to create crazy situations and then sit back and watch it all go down.” In the early seasons, he was shown to be as “utterly devoid of morality”, but in actuality he lives by his own set of rules known as “Bro Code” which also consists of a lemon law for blind dates.

In fact, these written rules for bros to follow have been published as a tie-in-novel and as an audio-book. I am sure you will be amused to know that there is actually an online Barney’s blog that he keeps referring to and which is updated by CBS regularly.
